To quote a hobbit...

It's Friday morning.

I always try to begin each week with a positive outlook. And let's not forget my trusty to-do list. Being the task-oriented gal that I am, I thoroughly enjoy crossing items off as they're completed -- I smile to myself with a sense of satisfaction -- done!!

However, here it is Friday morning. As I look back over the week and my woefully incomplete to-do list, this quote seems perfectly fitting. Perhaps my list was overly ambitious. Perhaps my time was poorly spent. Perhaps I need to re-prioritize.

I am right there with you! I started to laugh ( b/c I could relate sooo well) and then started to cry.( b/c I REALLY could relate SO well)

Yes, I have been constantly making lists each day, cross off what I can, and add more. ((sigh)) I am dreaming of when the snow flies and I can hopefully just sit and knit. ((HUGS))

I keep telling myself that the busy season will be over and then my son chimes in..." you always seem busy". Hmmmm ((sigh)) Maybe...somehow I need to weed out some more things in my life, but what? Maybe I will have to just keep breathing, and taking one step at a time and just do the best I can and leave the rest to the Lord.

Thank you my dear friend I needed to know that someone else out there is feeling the same and we can pray for each other. ((HUGS))

Lisa~How perfect to read this today! It's so easy to get overwhelmed! A dear friend once told me that God doesn't "yell" his plans to us...he whispers them quietly in our ear. It's up to us to "quiet" down so that we can hear Him.
